Initially released in 2011, liver imaging reporting and data (LI-RADS) CT/MRI diagnostic algorithm categorizes hepatic observations on an ordinal scale based on the probability of hepatocellular carcinoma, malignancy, or benignity, and guides reproducible interpretation, clear communication, and standardized terminology for liver imaging. LI-RADS has significantly expanded in scope in the past decade, with the inclusion of algorithms that address screening and surveillance, diagnosis with contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), and treatment response assessment with both CEUS and CT/MRI. LI-RADS algorithms undergo periodic refinements based on accumulating scientific evidence, user feedback, and technological advancements. This manuscript discusses recent LI-RADS algorithm refinements, planned updates, with a focus on LI-RADS CT/MRI diagnostic algorithm, and future goals.

Deep learning on CT scans to predict checkpoint inhibitor treatment outcomes in advanced melanoma.
Sci Rep

Medical Image Analysis, Department of Biomedical Engineering, Eindhoven University of Technology, Eindhoven, The Netherlands.
Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment has proven successful for advanced melanoma, but is associated with potentially severe toxicity and high costs. Accurate biomarkers for response are lacking. The present work is the first to investigate the value of deep learning on CT imaging of metastatic lesions for predicting ICI treatment outcomes in advanced melanoma.

This study aimed to investigate the cutoff values of standardized uptake values (SUVs) and their accuracy using single-photon emission computed tomography-computed tomography (SPECT-CT) for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) osteoarthritis (OA) based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical examination. We included 106 joints of 53 patients with TMJ OA. SUVmax and SUVpeak of each TMJ was measured.

Molecular imaging using positron emission tomography (PET) provides sensitive detection and mapping of molecular targets. While cancer-associated fibroblasts and integrins have been proposed as targets for imaging of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), herein, spatial transcriptomics and proteomics of human surgical samples are applied to select PDAC targets. We find that selected cancer cell surface markers are spatially correlated and provide specific cancer localization, whereas the spatial correlation between cancer markers and immune-related or fibroblast markers is low.

Isolated rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder is a prodrome of α-synucleinopathies. Using positron emission tomography, we assessed changes in Parkinson's disease-related motor and cognitive metabolic networks and caudate/putamen dopaminergic input in a 4-year longitudinal imaging study of 13 male subjects with this disorder. We also correlated times to phenoconversion with baseline network expression in an independent validation sample.
